Sheesh.

Live is not a DJ program - or it never was intended to be in the first place. Unfortunately, v.5 is now almost too DJ friendly (at the expense of stability - thanks Abes...*)

*note sarcasm

That said, people use it for DJing, but they have to throw out all their preconceived notions about "nudging", independant tempo control for tracks and "decks".

FORGET IT ALL.

You can load up over two thousand tracks that can be triggered just by your controller - at 128 notes x 16 channels, you've got 2048 tracks just waiting to be triggered at the touch of a key (and a channel select button) on your controller.

If you count 128 CC messages x 16 channels too, now you've got 4096 tracks just waiting to be triggered.

You don't need decks. Don't think of it that way, think of clips instead.
